Matthew 24:5-28

5For 1manyG4183 will comeG2064 in My nameG3686, sayingG3004, ‘I amG1510 the 2ChristG5547,’ and will misleadG4105 manyG4183. 6You willG3195 be hearingG191 of 3warsG4171 and rumorsG189 of warsG4171. SeeG3708 that you are not frightenedG2360, for those things mustG1163 takeG1096 placeG1096, but that is not yetG3768 the endG5056. 7For 4nationG1484 will riseG1453 againstG1909 nationG1484, and kingdomG932 againstG1909 kingdomG932, and in variousG2596 placesG5117 there will be 5faminesG3042 and earthquakesG4578. 86But allG3956 theseG3778 thingsG3778 are merely the beginningG746 of birthG5604 pangsG5604.

9“7ThenG5119 they will deliverG3860 you to tribulationG2347, and will killG615 you, and 8you will be hatedG3404 by allG3956 nationsG1484 becauseG1223 of My nameG3686. 10At that timeG5119 manyG4183 will 910fallG4624 awayG4624 and will 11betrayG3860 oneG240 anotherG240 and hateG3404 oneG240 anotherG240. 11ManyG4183 12falseG5578 prophetsG5578 will ariseG1453 and will misleadG4105 manyG4183. 12BecauseG1223 lawlessnessG458 is increasedG4129, 13mostG4183 people’sG4183 loveG26 will growG5594 coldG5594. 1314But the one who enduresG5278 to the endG5056, he will be savedG4982. 14ThisG3778 15gospelG2098 of the kingdomG932 16shall be preachedG2784 in the wholeG3650 1718worldG3625 as a testimonyG3142 to allG3956 the nationsG1484, and thenG5119 the endG5056 will comeG2240.

15“ThereforeG3767 whenG3752 you seeG3708 the 19abominationG946 of desolationG2050 which was spokenG3004 of throughG1223 DanielG1158 the prophetG4396, standingG2476 in 20the holyG40 placeG5117 (21let the readerG314 understandG3539), 16thenG5119 thoseG3588 whoG3588 are in JudeaG2453 must fleeG5343 to the mountainsG3735. 1722WhoeverG3588 is on 23the housetopG1430 must not goG2597 downG2597 to getG142 the things out that are in his houseG3614. 1824WhoeverG3588 is in the fieldG68 must not turnG1994 backG3694G1994 to getG142 his cloakG2440. 19But 25woeG3759 to thoseG3588 who are pregnantG1064 and to thoseG3588 who are nursingG2337 babiesG2337 in thoseG3588 daysG2250! 20But prayG4336 that your flightG5437 will not be in the winterG5494, orG3366 on a SabbathG4521. 21For thenG5119 there will be a 26greatG3173 tribulationG2347, suchG3634 as has not occurredG1096 sinceG575 the beginningG746 of the worldG2889 untilG2193 nowG3568, norG3761 everG3756G3361 will. 22UnlessG1487 thoseG1565 daysG2250 had been cutG2856 shortG2856, noG3756G3956 27lifeG4561 would have been savedG4982; but for 28the sakeG1223 of the 29electG1588 thoseG1565 daysG2250 will be cutG2856 shortG2856. 2330ThenG5119 ifG1437 anyoneG5100 saysG3004 to you, ‘BeholdG2400, hereG5602 is the 31ChristG5547,’ orG2228 ‘32ThereG5602 He is,’ do not believeG4100 him. 24For falseG5580 ChristsG5580 and 33falseG5578 prophetsG5578 will ariseG1453 and will 34showG1325 greatG3173 3536signsG4592 and wondersG5059, soG5620 as to misleadG4105, ifG1487 possibleG1415, evenG2532 37the 38electG1588. 25BeholdG2400, I have toldG4275 you in advanceG4275. 26SoG3767 ifG1437 they sayG3004 to you, ‘BeholdG2400, He is in the wildernessG2048,’ do not goG1831 out, or, ‘BeholdG2400, He is in the innerG5009 roomsG5009,’ do not believeG4100 them. 2739For justG5618 as the lightningG796 comesG1831 from the eastG395 and flashesG5316 evenG2193 to the westG1424, soG3779 will the 40comingG3952 of the 41SonG5207 of ManG444 be. 2842WhereverG3699G1437 the corpseG4430 is, thereG1563 the 43vulturesG105 will gatherG4863.
